Off my period, but still experiencing random, mild cramps every occasionally. i think it's from life stress and anxiety disorder. is that possible?

You may be right.: Stress and anxiety can affect your bowels and cramping in your bowels may feel just like menses cramping. Try low stress activities to reduce stress, walking, fun activities. New study shows that coloring books may be helpful for anxiety. It's fun and may help.
